A fascinating, behind the scenes documentary (with much archival footage from the 80s and 90s) about how AIDS activists (two groups in particular) fought to have drug companies recognize the epidemic and bring promising drugs to market in time to save lives. It can perhaps be easy to forget now the struggles that many in the affected communities faced, including the hatred of some political figures and the fear of the community at large. Bravery in the face of suffering and death.
